Get a 4th.
That's it. What a hilarious map (still in the pool lol?). Jaedong had 4th and the center control for a long time. He failed to kill the PF like 3 times, there was no army support but he kept sending too few units. Yeah, blame the map and ignore the constant multi drops by the better player. Jaedong secured a fourth for such an insignificant period of time, and his fourth was minutes behind Cures.

damn I thought JD had the game 
I am very disappointed in the casting.
Anyways let's hope puma can start the EGTL comeback!

The map is balanced stat-wise, so people really need to stop whining. If zerg goes broodlord infestor, makes spores to protect main and third and just camps the middle terran can't take a 4th either. it goes both ways and jaedong just didn't play well. and even if it were true and this map was actually bad for zerg, all i can say to that is ... GOOD.
most maps are good for zerg, doesn't hurt to have 1-2 maps in the mappool that actually require the zerg to play better than their opponent.

I think he has a higher chance of winning if he just pulls his starting SCVs:D

jaedong needed to drop spores instead of trying to out-multitask the terran. On a side note cure is really good im very impressed

This is quite possible, actually wouldn't be surprised (not the retirement part) if it did happen.

Like doesn't he know planetary >> baneling? Come on... Is this just because he won those games? His play was no where flawless in his wins man. The good news is there is a lot of room for him to grow. The fact he won those games is a plus.
Not to mentioned that his wins were ZvT on Taldarim Altar, which is slightly Z favor map, and ZvZ.

I'd pay to see JD play against Stephano in a best of. Pretty sure it would be close. Leenock says he's still having a hard time with the new patch. Life and Leenock are sort of my go to guys atm for Zergs.

/sigh at all the "no that map is T-favored" "No all maps Z favored because Z >>>>> all races" "No it's imba!!!"
Seriously, JD was picked to play on that map and got crushed on it. Whether that's on JD or on EGTL Coach, it's on EGTL for that, and every loss. I am a super fan of EGTL in proleague, but they are getting crushed ATM.

Apparently any map where Zergs can't take 3 free bases and defend them with only queens is now a total joke and completely imbalanced, or at least that's what most of TL thinks...
|
Why don't you try playing the game instead?
|
I wonder what % of zerg wins in ZvT are roach bane all ins?

People claimed he was code S lvl and what we just saw was not code S... According to foreign casters, every player is Code S level. It's like in school when they say that every child is special. It has no meaning

he was supply blocked, I was like wtf, why arent u making infestors when realized he was 130/130 for awile
